I know I am not alone in missing the Your Stuff menu that used to be in Jive. There's lots of great stuff on the profile pages for helping people find things they worked on and care about, but few people seem to think to look there. Inspired by some cool ideas nbussard was testing in a Jive Cloud instance, I tried to figure out how to make links that would take you to your own profile page, and even more specifically, to the different tabs within your profile. What I needed was a way to insert the username into the URL.

Here's what I have come up with so far (it needs to be in an HTML widget, by the way -- does not work in Formatted Text widget):

Note that I worded the last item in a way to entice people to click on it, and hopefully update it, as it takes them to their profile page. And the "Points Rank" code will only work if you have the Bunchball Advanced Gamification module installed.

Since you are working in a cloud instance, why not just do this as an Add-On? There is already and extension point for adding a tab in the profile page. You could write an app that presents whatever you wanted to in that page. Then, if you wanted to, you could simply use the theme tool add a special link. This avoids changing any of the spring, etc.

You now have an upgrade safe way to carry this forward. Also, because it's an app, you have all the extension points available at your disposal. Say you want to quickly reference something from "Your Stuff"-- use !App. Want to add something to your actions? Make a new tab under the actions. You get the idea...
